Every child has begun PALs (reading level) testing, and we will finish testing by Friday, October 2nd. These results will be shared at the October parent/teacher conference. More information about conferences will come next week. We have began weekly assessments in math and reading online in order to prepare students for May online SOL testing. Copies of the test including questions and answer choices, and your student’s grade will go home in red folders each week for at home review. We also use this information to remediate instruction in class with your child. A letter went home Thursday about Back to School Night on Tuesday, September 29th, There will be information on math board implementation, as well as practice items for the Reading and Math SOL students will take in May. I hope to see you then. Thank you for all you do to help prepare your child for success!
